ABSTRACT
Gestational diabetes (GDM) is associated with a high risk of future type 2 diabetes. Despite multiple clinical guidelines highlighting the importance of screening in this high-risk population, many health systems report that fewer than 50 % of eligible women are screened in the postpartum period, and little is known about screening beyond the first postpartum year. Systems-level approaches to screening for and prevention of type 2 diabetes in women with a history of GDM are therefore an opportunity for quality improvement. This review will discuss the literature on interventions to improve screening at the systems level and highlight successful strategies as well as gaps in the existing literature. Future directions for intervention research are suggested.
